Description

MDC Tenor SN. 30119

Developed in collaboration with Matt Dahlberg, the Cedar / Low G edition represents his vision for maximizing tonal depth and expressive range within this configuration. The responsive cedar soundboard pairs with Low G tuning to create a fuller tonal foundation, expanded sustain, and a broader dynamic palette. Notes develop with natural compression and harmonic bloom, offering dimension and control for players who want warmth without sacrificing clarity.

Every structural element — from the D-Shape soundhole to the TRU-Reduction system and side sound port — supports this tonal objective, creating a platform designed to bring out the full potential of cedar and Low G performance.

Each instrument also unlocks exclusive learning pathways developed specifically for this collaboration, guiding players through repertoire, technique, and tonal exploration tailored to maximize this build’s character.

Created for those who want to optimize tone, depth, and stylistic range in a cedar / Low G instrument.
